Raving Toy Maniac

Have they shown any additional lines beyond the first one anywhere? Love the first series, and really want this line to continue!

Wave 15 uses the same item # as Wave 14. So if your store is loaded with Wave 14, you may not see Wave 15. This happens every once and a while and it is extremely frustrated if you only have 1 TRU in your area or the wave is just not a good seller. The case break down is:

4 - Nova Flame Human Torch & Annihilus
4 - Transforming Thing/ Pilot Ben Grimm & Herald Silver Surfer
2 - Pyrues Kril the Firelord & Gabriel the Air-Walker **TRU Exclusive
2 - Juggernaut as Kuurth & Hulk as Nul **TRU Exclusive

I had to travel 40 mins out of my area to get these, but atleast I am done until the next wave. Good Luck!

I am considering selling my 1993 Chrome Silver Surfer statue. It is numbered 1,857 out of 15,000. It is the one that had sooo many broken or recalled. It has only been out of the box to check condiion. The box is excellent as is the statue. I can't find any sales on line to get an idea of value. I know it's rare but .... Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hi - I've been slowly building a comprehensive checklist app for the iPhone and iPad. (About to reach 25,000 items) - Always trying to reach out to get requests for additions (as well as drum up volunteers to help check for errors, etc).

I sure would appreciate some feedback. Hopefully some of you will find it useful. Did I mention it was free!?

I really think we have a shot at a 2nd box set or sub if we are vocal and adamant with Matty on this. There's no logical reason it can't be done if we let them know there is a demand & we're serious about this. MOTU fans got a Castle Greyskull made from scratch. That was risky, but Mattel took the shot cause they had confidence in MOTU fans. With the LOSH they already have evidence of the viability of a LOSH 12 pack as seen in the 2x sell through. This and the fact that no new tooling really will be necessary. Mattel has the teen buck & can use it to make all the characters at no additional cost. Last, if they were able to go back & do a new run if DCUC wave 5 for DCUC fans (which was a store) how much more so with an in demand item like a LOSH? We just need to be persistent in letting them know that we are here & we're not going anywhere til we get our LOSH sub or multipack. So if your with me on this please go over to the Matty forum and sign the petition I started & vote for how you want your LOSH figures.

I think it's really important to share your experiences both good and bad with any etailer that is fighting for your hard earned money, especially in a challenged economy.

That said, I have been a BBTS customer for about 20 years. In that time, I've had 2 problems, with the last taking place a few weeks ago. I ordered a case of wrestling figures which were actually going to be shipping as a part of a package for a family member of mine overseas. Long story short, it was a time critical shipment and somehow the case went by USPS standard rather than Priority and the USPS classified it as a "dead address". BBTS like any other retailer, needed to wait for the return of the product to determine what the issue was prior to reshipping it.

The USPS loses the package and it apparently goes t toy limbo. I was upset, as this was a gift and I had now missed my window of shipment. After explaining this to BBTS Mike (the rep) he decided to issue me my refund in full, without waiting for the package to arrive, advising me it was probably gone and that they would chalk it up as a loss.

Does anybody remember this tory from the late '70s or early '80s? I'm trying to figure out who made this and what it was actually called.

The Brain is made of soft rubber and glows in the dark. You could squeeze it and pink slime would ooze out of three slits in the front.

It measures about 4 inches by 4 inches by 2.25 inches.

Unfortunately the pink slime has hardened but there are a couple of pieces of it rattling around inside.

Aloha. I used to post here years ago under MCA (Bobbi actually gave me my GMail account).

I've been out of the toy loop for a while, and I was curious what the consensus is on Play Arts Kai figures. I see they're usually pretty expensive, and the Lara Croft included with the Tomb Raider CE is a big draw for me, but the only people I know with experience with the figures are Final Fantasy fans who have nothing but bad things to say about the FF figure quality and paint jobs.

Does anyone have experience with the Arkham , Mass Effect, or other lines that could boost my expectations?

Thanks!
